It is always a pleasure to update this thread because it means that another mod has been released here on this website and this time it is Total Classics 1962 by stecropper. You can download the mod right here. For those of you who do not know who stecropper is he is a member of this community who is heavily involved in Total Classics and probably knows as much about making a total conversion mod as Jim825. If you've played any of the season mods from the 1960's you already know how detailed and accurate stecropper is. And this 1962 mod is no different. The decision to go with baseball cards of the 1962 major league players was a nice touch. You can see some of the cards in the loading screens and they are also used as portraits when a player comes up to bat or in to pitch. The installation of this mod was quick and easy. Just install it over a clean copy of Mvp 2005 and you are all set. One thing I did notice when I read the directions is that you can bypass the Rglass profile because as many of you know already if you create a player named Katie Roy and save it you will have everything unlocked under your own profile and you don't have to use Robert Glass's profile. The music once again is essential to these season mods. The proper music that was around during that time is important to set the mood for the game and again the choices put into the 1962 jukebox fit right in and sound wonderful. According to stecropper he stated that this mod was the first mod made that was synched with the statistics from the 1962 Strat-O-Matic baseball game. What I think he means is that they took the stats from the players in that game and put them in this mod. Hopefully if he comes in here and reads this he can confirm this or not. The only other thing I can say about this mod is that you should download it and install it because there is a lot to love in this game. Have fun with the mod and also don't forget to thank the modders for their work and Trues, the owner of this website for hosting these exciting mods. Video: Pittsburgh's Roy Face retires the final two Colt 45's in the 9th to save the game. Screenshots This staged photo depicting four members of the brand new New York Mets of the National League shows the only time all year that the Mets had anything to jump up and cheer about as they went 40 - 120 in their inaugural season and finished an amazing 60 1/2 games behind the pennant winning Giants. Welcome to Total Classics 1962! This classic overlay included here is in other season mods because of the beauty and detail of it. It tells you anything you need to know at a glance without cluttering up the screen and is a welcome addition to the 1962 season. At bat for the Colt 45's is Bob Aspromonte. A trivia question you can spring on someone is to ask them to name the last player in the major leagues to have played for the Brooklyn Dodgers and the answer would be this man here, who retired in 1971. Hal Smith could not check his swing and was one of Vern Law's five strikeouts on the day.

I never said you were. And what would make you say that? You just joined yesterday. How many accounts do you have on here?

So what you are saying is that you expect him to search?

You can't get far without a nod to The Doors. Here's Roadhouse Blues from the album Morrison Hotel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XWQrt00_NM

Oh my God. What the hell was that?

Chiddy Bang? The first thing I thought of when I read that was Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, an old movie. Sweet Child O' Mine. Guns n' Roses. 1987. Too damned bad that they couldn't stay together. What a solo near the end of the song.

Where do you people come from?? :mad:

Back in 1984 Deep Purple reunited to make one of the best albums I have ever had the pleasure to own, Perfect Strangers. The album started out with this song, Knockin' at your Back Door which was a huge hit. The guitar solo in this song by Richie Blackmore is something you want to hear again and again. My favorite songs seem to be the ones with great guitar solos and I'll post more of them later on.

I was really hoping that something like this would happen in here. I already know what kind of music I go to first when I am in the mood to pop a audio CD in my computer. Maybe this thread will open my eyes to some other music that is just as good as the groups I listen to. Thanks for filling me in on who Rebecca Black is. I had no idea. I tried listening to that song of hers last night and I only made it through the first 45 seconds until I had enough. That's the good stuff! I bet you played some of these songs years ago too on your guitar.

First of all, who the hell is Rebecca Black? Another song I have been listening to off and on the past month or so is from a band called Alcatrazz, which featured a young Yngwie Malmsteen on guitar. This one is called Island in the Sun and it has a nice guitar solo by Malmsteen. Graham Bonnet is the lead singer.

Right now I'm finishing up an AC DC weekend because it is Bon Scott's birthday tomorrow. Scott was the lead singer of the band before Brian Johnson. Someone posted the entire album of Let There Be Rock on Youtube, so I am posting the link right here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuNDzBmNwlE Tracklist: Go down Dog eat dog - 05:31 Le there be rock - 09:06 Bad boy boogie - 15:12 Problem child - 19:40 Overdose - 25:05 Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be - 31:15 Whola lotta Rosie - 35:29

You lucky son of a ..... Oh hi honey!!!! I didn't know you were behind me. I was only kidding with this guy.

Here is a video I uploaded some time ago. Just follow the link.

You see what one picture of one of the most beautiful women in the world does? What's this thread about anyways?

Great! Then you can upload that to the MVP2005Miscellaneous section.

Um, no. :blush:

Just be patient. When it is released it is going to be well worth the wait. These guys have really done an outstanding job.

Well there's a dose of reality. :)

Oh yeah, you are not kidding. You won't get an argument from me about this. The Yankees have bandwagon fans too and you can spot them a mile away. I agree that if you spot someone wearing a Babe Ruth T-shirt or jersey may only know the basics about him. Maybe all he knows about Ruth is that he's a player that he unlocked in a baseball video game. When your team has a bit of success you are suddenly going to see your favorite team on everyone. I saw it first hand with the Yankees. They won nothing in the 80's. In the early 90's they had a lousy team. In fact they ended up in last place in 1990. Then they started to improve. After the great run from 1996 to 2000 you couldn't count the Yankee hats and jerseys around you as compared to before when you only saw two or three. There's some Yankee fans today who don't know or care about anything before 1996 because they never heard of them before then.

Yes there is a beta but you missed it when they were looking for testers. The mod is 99% done so just hold on and please do not ask again when it will be released.

Holy....... I love you Kate Upton. P.S. Both of you guys are in line behind me.

I suppose the reason why I wrote what I did was when I am watching all the Yankee games that I do and every time they pan the crowd I see T-shirts with a lot of the old Yankee legends mixed in with the ones you would expect to see (like Jeter, A-Rod and Cano.) I always see Ruth, Gehrig, Mantle, Munson, etc all the time and that is why I wondered about these people and their knowledge of the Red Sox.

Now I'm hoping that gonzo asks again. That's a very nice thing to say and also welcome to the website. If you really want to donate then donate to the website because Trues can always use the help to pay server costs. Hahahahahahahahaahahaaha

Ok, well in that case I stand corrected. You're right in that you knew these guys well before I did since you followed them in the low minors. I understand what you mean.

When it is done it is done.
